Actually there is a case to be made for this to be part of the bridge code. A VLAN is a single collision domain which is mappable to a collission domain that is a bridge. infact the old VLAN code written by Lennert (and somebody else) had those two intermingled. cheers, jamal On Fri, 2005-03-11 at 12:37, Stephen Hemminger wrote: > On Fri, 11 Mar 2005 17:20:22 +0300 > Leo Yuriev <leo@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > > Kernel 2.6 (2.6.11) > > > > When ethernet-bridge forward a packet and such ethernet-frame has > > VLAN-tag, bridge should update skb->prioriry for properly QoS > > handling.
